1. Objective
The objective Rinnai Chemical Substance Policy is to achieve compliance of Rinnai-group
(hereafter, Rinnai) supplied products with regulations, by informing suppliers about the
chemical substance restricted due to its environment or human health effects.
In this policy, the chemical substance refers to the substance present in or released from
items delivered to Rinnai (hereafter, present substance).
This policy is an appendix of Rinnai Green Procurement Standards (hereafter, E-
Procurement Standards).
